Well, much to Captain Garbage’s dismay, we had to cut up the chieftain.  It was a sad moment for all of us.  To see such a once great machine say farewell. 

This one falls under the unusual category for things coming into our facility.  This was just towed in today and is really something to admire.  It is a 1972 Winnebago Chieftain RV.  It looks like it was top of the line in 1972.  This thing is fully loaded.  I was a little hesitant to climb inside though, as the first thing i saw upon opening the door was a giant mouse nest.  Once i got past the nest without getting attacked, i was able to truly take in the beauty of this once magnificent weekend road warrior.

Eric is one of our long time employees.  He has a knack for collecting what some deem as garbage for his own personal use.  He is probably the person who coined the phrase “one man’s junk is another man’s treasure.  These photos are of his Camaro, his golf cart, his boat, and the bed of his pickup.  See the photos for a detailed description.  Recently Eric hit a deer, destroying the bumper on his truck.  Did he buy a new bumper?  Of course not!!  He gathered some metal out of our scrap pile and made one!
